T'thia saw Aireth wander out and rushed to her side offering her bits of meat and having Arizath ask if she wished to be oiled or bathed or any other form of comfort to help consul the poor green. Lira immediatley went from Triant's shoulder to scratching the green comfortingly

Mine... the female weyrlings remain at Fort. They are under quarantine...

And their dragonets, of course, are still here, and not being cared for. All right, I'm going...

He shrugged... the girl seemed to have left without particularly acknowledging him anyway. He wandered off towards the weyrling barracks.
Niko looks up as she sees an older rider coming towards the barracks. Smiling a little, she runs over to him, looking up at him curiously. "Umm, do you know what exactly is going on at Fort right now, sir? All I've heard is something about it being quarantined, and all the female riders being stuck there..." She trails off uncertainly.

Kya feeds the little green, she's awfully friendly. "That's a girl," he says, when she makes a sound he recognizes as hunger from his own weyrling days. "A bite of tasty wherry will do you wonders."

R'nek blushed, almost to the ruddy colour of his dragonet. "Er... uh...I'm... I'm not... I'm a Weyrling too." He stumbled over the words, all poised and aloof manner dissolved the moment he opened his mouth. He sighed. "Illness at Fort. Girls that went... dragonets here... need to be taken care of." He managed to choke out, his colour deepening with every word.

((okay, we're going along with Fort's FF... yay. In this case, just for the sake of no more major tragedies please, I'm going to assume all of the green weyrling dragons have eaten and have received basic care, RP'd by their riders or not.))

The headwoman had actually given him good news for a change. That was something. She'd been keeping in touch with someone at Fort via flit, and apparently the Quarantine was soon to be lifted.

K'makin headed back outside to the Weyrling barracks with a little bit more spring to his step than usual. The girls would be pleased to hear that their partners were coming home soon, he couldn't wait to tell them!

Mack picked up on Kya's good spirits and dashed around in the sky, making happy noises. The flit liked hanging out with the girls, but still didn't believe that they were dragons. Dragons were big big big and these girls were so small, especially the really little one.

He bursts into the barracks, beaming. "They're coming back today," he exclaims gleefully at the surprised occupants.

Wrath emerges from between high over Benden Weyr and bellows loud enough to echo a few times. The watchdragon yelps, then bugles back, sounding happy.

The queen circles once, then angles her wings for a steep descent, losing height at an almost terrifying rate. Ease up there girl, Ray suggests, We've got passengers who may be screaming right now... though I can't hear anything... but either way, let's not traumatize the poor girls and boy.

Wrath's answering noise is full of disdain, but slows their fall to the ground. She backwings into a nearly dainty landing.

Get them off. And the blighted harness. I'm hungry. Blinking, Ray unfastens herself, and turns to unfasten the weyrling behind her.

"Everyone off, everyone off," she says loudly, hustling to get them to the ground. As they slide down, Ray begins unbuckling the extra straps from the upper portion of the harness, then hops down herself, hurrying to remove the score of giant buckles that hold the whole thing together. Once the last is freed, she grabs as much leather as she can and pulls it off entirely, leather scraping and metal clinking as it hits the ground.

Roaring again, Wrath springs into the air, sending dust and grit into Ray's eyes and up her nose. Cursing, Ray rubs at her face and sneezes.

The Weyrlings have vanished, probably to check on their dragons. Just as well. Ray grabs the harness and drags it toward the feeding grounds, where Wrath has just completely destroyed some hapless animal. It's only been a few seconds and Ray cannot tell what it was. It vanishes down the queen's throat and she goes for another.

Ray watches, feeling a strange satisfaction, glad that the full meal would require Wrath to sleep it off, which would hopefuly improve both of their moods.

A loud noise interrupts Kya's greeting of each of the little greens. "And I think that's them, ladies. Shall we?" He gestures to the exit.

He gets outside in time to see Wrath make a rather graceful landing, and a large group dismount. Trying not to grin and failing, Kya waits with the greens until the Weyrlings are all down and headed his way. "It's been delightful visiting with you charming ladies," he tells the greens. "Do please keep in touch, Nakoreth and I would be thrilled to hear from you."

With a pat on the head for one of the friendlier greens, Preyasith, Nakoreth had said her name was, Kya goes to greet Ray.

Just as he's passing the Weyrlings, Wrath jumps into the air, flying toward the feeding grounds, and he can see Ray follow. He hurries after, and finally catches up with her on the vantage point most riders use when supervising their dragons' feeding.

"Hello there," he says. "Good to have you back."

Ray jumps at the voice behind her. Nerves, nerves... "What? Oh. Hello K'makin. I'm glad to be home. What do you want?" She sounds rather suspicious.

"Nothing," he holds up both hands in an innocent gesture. "I'm just glad to have you back. We've only been getting what the dragons could understand, so ... what happened to the Weyrwoman?" He sounds rather baffled.
PostPosted: Tue Jan 25, 2005 10:38 pm


Ray shrugs, just as baffled. "I don't quite get it. She left the meeting a bit earlier than the rest of us, just before Quarantine was called, I believe. Didn't say much. Wrath said she went to see her Weyrmate, I don't know why, but you know how he's at another Weyr, doesn't want to be Weyrleader here, eh?" She shakes her head.

"I don't know if or when she'll be coming back. If she decides not to, I might just end up being the next Weyrwoman here. As is, I'll be doing most of the duties until she does come back, which leave the Weyrlings hanging." She grimaces.

K'makin's eyes widen and he backs up a step, hoping Ray doesn't notice. "Well. Then. Uh." He tries to think of a topic. "Well, Wrath certainly is hungry. She looks a bit off-color, has she been off her feed at Fort?"
PostPosted: Tue Jan 25, 2005 10:55 pm


"Yes, she really hated being away from home for so long. Visiting's nice, but not when it lasts three weeks. She couldn't feel settled, because it was tempoary, and well..." Ray sighs. "She's supposed to be rising soon, I think she was trying to delay it, so it wouldn't happen during the Quarantine."

K'vat ran to Preyasith and hugged her, her wings folding around him as she crooned happy. She had told him all about the nice man, K'makin, and how much she liked him wile he was at Fort Weyr, along with telling him how much she had missed him.
"I should thank him for us...." K'vat murmers softly looking around for the older rider.
K'makin is with Wrath's
K'vat gulps, "I'll thank him later then...."
You are scared of Wrath and hers? The young green asked couriously
Are you hungry Reya? does your hide itch? K'vat tryed to change the subject.
no, K'makin took good care of me
K'vat flushed and looked down twords where Wrath was feeding.

Kara was rubbing Riv's eye ridge when Wrath made her grand entrance. Both dragon and rider rushed to the ledge of their weyr to watch the comotion.
She will rise soon, I will give chase
Kara sputtered and stared at her lifemate in shock, finnally she found her voice, "but, you like greens!" she points to the young weyrlings who were greeting their riders that had be stuck at Fort, motions twors Weith's weyr and finnal points to Cyll and Carla.
The Weyr needs her to be flown by the best

T'thia had been dozing on the high sun ledge with Arizath when an extrodinarily loud crashing bugle came erupting from Wrath. stratled, T'this nearly rolled off the ledge if it hadn't been for Arizath extending a delicate wing to hold her on. she sighed in releife

"thanks Riz"

her bronze made a croon of contenment before standing and sending out a welcome to Wrath as her passenger's dismounted.

she's testy, she'll be rising soon now. I will catch her

T'thia had gone pale at his comment

"Riz we discussed this"

I know, but rivath is going to give chase. Wrath must be flown by the best

Arizath puffed out his chest to indicate himself as the best dragon

"you're full of yourself. wouldn't you rather fly a green?"

Arizath snorted in indignation

no, i am the best, and will fly the best

he eyed Wrath as a thief eyes a jewel he intends to steal. T'thia looked him over he two seamed strangly colored, like a new coin, glistening brightly. Huntu burst in and screached at her before disapearing

"LIRA!"

T'thia called the blue back and demanded for the where abouts of her little queen. once she got the image of the clearing Lira was on T'thia lept agily to Arizath's back

"we need your harness now!"

Arizath dropped from the ledge and landed neatly by the wyreling barracks

[color-olive] we realy need our own wyre mine

T'thia didn't respond she raced inside and grabbed the harness off the peg near her cot. quickly hitching it in place after months of practice she launched herself to Arizath's back once more and was airborn before she had finished strapping herself in. the clearing wasn't far they could fly straight and be there soon. before she knew it Arizath ahd caught a warm current and was flieing frightfully fast towards where she could see a group of flits already forming. Arizath landed and let T'thia climb down before heading back to his ledge

just call when you're done, i'm getting more sun

T'thia had no problem spotting Huntu and Oneth already begining their impressive airleals and Lira, already teasing the group of wild ones there mixed with ehr other two.

((Lira is rising, any of you who have a flit and wish to attempt to catch her please go to the thread designated for her flight, i want to get this flight finished before Wrath rises so it must be completed in one Pern day))
